no, DON'T lie, you can get seriosly done for that, and besides, if you blatantly can't do the job anyway, you won't last very long.

K...there are some spelling mistakes in there, i'll go over them systematically
->It's "curriculum vitae"
under the "experience" section:
->scratch the "i" in development
->it's "generally" instead of "genarally"
->"seperate" instead of "separate"
->"scenary"= i think you're looking for "scenario" here. (but if you do mean "background" it's "scenEry")
That's it as far as spelling is concerned i think...
-----------------------------------------------------
Then, mistakes in wording things:
under "game development and design":
->you can and should rephrase the first sentence into something simpler. Something like "Worked in two different teams" would do the job imho, and sounds less unnatural.
->"both teams have crumbled", not "has"
->"low finance abilities" would best be paraphrased as "few financial means/resources"
->"general work on sound" instead of "work on sound, generally"
under "software using":
->it's "operating systems", not "operative systems". That would mean the same as surgery systems.
under "education":
->"in my second year of.." rather than "on"
-----------------------------------------------------
That's about the most elementary mistakes i can see in there, i hope my yakking here helped.
Would any native english speaker care to have a good look at the CV as well for GF? I mean, i think my english is a-ok but it's still better to have a native speaker in aye.
